Polyoxygenated Flavone Analogs as Inhibitors of PGE2 Production

  • Published : 2003.04.01

Abstract

As part of our research to discover novel synthetic flavonoids which can be applied to chronic inflammation diseases, many structurally modified flavone analogs have been synthesized to obtain information concerning the relationships between structures and the anti-inflammatory activities. We previously reported that 7-methoxyflavone analogs generally exhibited strong inhibitory activities against cyclooxygenase-2 catalyzed prostaglandin production. (omitted)
